Finding sacred space in our lives
Trish Harrison Warren, "Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred practices in everyday life"
Sacred space can still be found in a disenchanted world, embedded in the daily routines of our lives as much as in the daily offices of a medieval monk.
Every aspect of the day can be a space for spiritual reflection and contemplation: waking, making the bed, brushing teeth, losing keys, eating leftovers, fighting with your spouse, checking email, sitting in traffic, calling a friend, drinking tea, sleeping.

Sumptuous reproductions of the pivotal music highlight the influences of the sacred and profane, continental and insular trends, and political pressure on the development of the Anglican choral tradition.
